In the last post I talked about signs that shows that you are addicted to Facebook. While I was writing that post I realized it is not only Facebook but one more social network that I am addicted to and that is offcourse twitter. So how is Twitter different from Facebook is another discussion. The signs of addictness are offcourse different then off Facebook. If you have an account on Twitter and have used it you must have been addicted to Twitter. Let me tell you the signs and you will know if you are addicted or not. Below are the 10 signs of Twitter addictness:

You have a twitter client on your cellphone.

You launch your favorite Twitter client as first application after logging into computer.

You compare one Twitter client with the other to find the best one.

You keep hitting Refresh/Update to get new updates in your Timeline.

You check every user’s twitter profile who follow you.

You #hashtag your Facebook updates or text messages.

You always try to tweet good valuable stuff in hope getting RTs.

You check your followers number everyday.

You check your number of updates everyday.

You use third party services to keep track of who is un-following you.

These are the 10 signs I feel are the signs of Twitter addiction, if you feel that there are other signs that shows Twitter addiction or I have added something which is normal and not sign of addiction let me know in the comments.

P.S Did I mention that my username on twitter is @hameedullah and you can follow me on twitter.

So you think you are not addicted to Facebook? And you use it like just another tool and for fun. You are wrong. Facebook has become part of our life and our day just does not completes if we don’t see our friends updates on Facebook. Read the following and your thoughts will be changed. So, here goes my list of you know you are addicted to Facebook when:

You update your status on Facebook and your brother sitting in next room comments on it.

Your friends in party take their pics, upload them to Facebook and then call you to ask if you have looked at pics.

You look for “Like” button in the newspaper.

You wake up in morning and the first thing you do is goto Facebook to see updates from friends.

You post your wedding event to Facebook and ask friends to RSVP.

You see something amazing and you take a pic to share it with your friends on facebook.

You just want to comments on every status update of your friends.

Facebook is the first web page you open after launching a browser.

You hit a Refresh on Facebook Page hoping that there will be some more updates.

You check your emails to see if there are any notifications from Facebook.

If you still think you are not addicted to Facebook, then you already are but you don’t realize it because it is now part of you and your life.
